Not Sponsored: I'm doing a mini-series this week on some products I purchased from The Cottage Greenhouse. Yesterday, I talked about their wonderful Orange Blossom & Honey Mask. Today, I will be reviewing their Grapefruit & Blood Orange Hand & Body Light Lotion. Currently, I am LOVING Vitamin C both in skincare and body care products. I mentioned this on Twitter the other day, but using products with Vitamin C really makes a difference in the texture of your skin. I know my skin feels softer & Vitamin C will make your skin GLOW. Well you guys, this lotion has both grapefruit and orange extracts. It's loaded with Vitamin C & B5. This lotion also contains Macadamia Oil, Mango Butter, Apricot Kernel Oil and Aloe Leaf Juice. It's Paraben Free, Gluten Free, Vegan and Cruelty Free. I'm such a gourmand scent lover, but I'm really loving citrus scents. Years ago, I fell head over heels for Soap & Glory's Sugar Crush (review). It was so uplifting and got my day going! Well, the same thing for this lotion. It's a perk me up (but definitely not overwhelming). The first thing I noticed when I flipped open the cap was a luscious pink grapefruit scent. If you love pink grapefruit, you will love this lotion. The lotion is white & creamy. It absorbs really well into the skin. Very quickly, may I add! Your skin is left with a beautiful glow. This is a lightweight lotion, that is perfect for Spring & Summer. It's not heavy, oily, greasy or sticky. It has a really nice FRESH SCENT! The scent is so authentic and natural. I'm always looking for that in products. I'm really enjoying mine and feel you will as well. It's a nice size tube (8oz/226g). One tube should take you through the Summer months. Plus, this was one of Oprah's Favorites.
